Y Combinator Graduates 63 Startups, 31 Presenting To Investors

Y Combinator today is graduating 63 new companies, its largest and most biggest class ever. 31 of the startups are presenting themselves on the record for investors at the new Y Combinator headquarters in Mountain View, Calif.

“We didn’t become less selective,” Y Combinator founder Paul Graham said of the latest class, his program’s thirteenth. “We funded three percent of the applicants just like we always do. It’s just a larger percentage of the total pool of start-ups is coming through Y Combinator.”
